Hello, Doug:

I presume the 350 Telyt lens you used for the terrific photos is the one 
you bought from me.  Right?  How do you like the lens?

Warm regards... Ken Lassiter

The California Raptor Center (http://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/calraptor/), a 
teaching and training facility operated by the UC Davis school of Veterinary 
Medicine, held an open house yesterday where several non-releasable birds 
were on display.  These birds are not releasable due to injuries or 
imprinting and the ones on display have become accustomed to large groups of 
people.  The photos:
